A Breath of Fresh Air. A poem by Trish Bennett

Our road is loaded.
Gun-metal-grey
people-carriers
armed with children,
hot-blooded-racers
with roaring exhausts,
quarantined pensioners
— out for the air,
all speed down
the light-tunnelled lane
to park
a trigger hair
from each other.
They roll down
their windows
to inhale
the lake’s
breath-taking breeze
as it ventilates in
to empty jetties.
Servant to a menagerie of creatures, some human. Poet. Tells stories. Makes a show of herself. Beekeeper. Takes photies. Throws knives. http://trishbennettblog.wordpress.com/
